| Committees The SWA operates three committees: - CLAN (Committee for Licensed Active Negotiations)
- STAG (Scottish Trade Activity Group)
- SAS (Scottish Wholesale Association Security)
CLAN and STAG are unique in that they enable competing wholesalers to share best practice for the benefit of the wholesale trade in Scotland. Representing the industry as opposed to their own wholesale businesses, our Members use the committees as an unbiased and neutral platform on which to discuss, offer advice and work with suppliers to influence their marketing and selling strategies. Associate Members are invited to attend these forums. |
